I don? even know how I ended up here, but I thought this post was good. I do not know who you are but certainly you're going to a famous blogger if you are not already ;) Cheers!

Good morning all! @Sir Biddle- your wife doesn't give you that face every morning, does she? The one in the pic doesn't look too happy with her hubby. I would assume we've all been there at one time or another, though. I have a bit on a confession to make. MT Nest & I are sisters. I'm surprised that she didn't figure out that it was me! She had told me about the blog, so I decided to check it out. I never told her that I was posting. I was going to see how long it took her to figure out it was me. Well, the cat is out of the bag now. lol... Wish I could see her face when she reads this! Anyway, have a great day, and a fabulous weekend all!

I don't get that look every morning. Just the normal stress of having 2 kids and no sleep. Not going through anything any other parent hasn't.

Well, umm, I don't think we ever told you that me and Truth are brother and sister, too. So join the sibs group!!

Oh hahahaha, I'm not losing my mind! Everytime I read 1 of your comments I thought how much you & my sis had in common. I, also, wondered if the world was ready for 2 of you...kiddin'. When we would talk, I was gonna ask you about it, but, got side tracked...imagine that. Well, it's good to know I'm still sane! @Mary,the sibs group, I like that! Have a great w/e everyone! Oh & sis...payback is a...lol!

Hey MT! I thought I'd die laughing when you said you had the same soup recipe, seeing it was your recipe to start with! Big sis fooled you, huh! Lol.....I'll be waiting on that payback.
Mary- I did notice that you and truth were sibs. Anyone else related?

Good morning! Things are s-l-o-w-l-y calming down at the office, hopefully after the big move it will be back to normal again. Busy weekend (and week) coming up but looking forward to spending time with (most of) my family :-)

The Witty One@Sir Biddle the Dad

I was thinking that myself. I can only imagine what the conversation would be.

Wife: Honey, we need to talk.
Sir B: What dear?
Wife: We really need a frame for this bed.
Sir B: I'll go to the store later, AFTER coffee.
Wife: We also need some pictures for this room. And some curtains. And a different lamp because the one we have has a hole in it.
Sir B: Anything else?
Wife: Yep. I'll make a list.

And then the picture is taken.

Sir Biddle

I'm going to have to sweep my house now as I think you have me under surveillance. The only thing off about the conversation is replace bedframe with headboard and you are spot on. Spot. On.

The Witty One@Sir Biddle the Paranoid

I don't have you under surveilence, I just know women.

November 16, 2012 at 9:25 am |

Sir Biddle

The other conversation I was thinking was:

Biddle: Whew I am tired
Wife: YOU are tired?!!? I was up 4 times last night.
Biddle: I just meant I'm tired in a general sense
Wife: Well, I'm up every night in a general sense.
Biddle: My body is not the one producing milk.
Wife: Oh now this is my fault?
Biddle *in my head* why did I even say anything out loud in the first place?

Morning! Quick check in this morning before heading out for a couple of hours. Have fun while I'm gone!!

Good Fri am! Waking up to 27 degrees, brrrr. Good day to get some soup simmering for the day. JBJ, I noticed your msg yesterday, later in the day...I did reply to you. (better late than never...lol) Opening day was a good for the hunters & only 1 person shot (15 yr old, shot in leg). I'm off to fill the crock pot with the stuff to warm me up after I rake leaves AGAIN. Hope everybody has a good day. BTW, will someone please give the baby a bottle?
